Analysis Edit

• This spell is the single-most potent Recovery Psynergy in the game, short of reviving a fallen ally. As for whether it's the most practical, most would award that honor to Pure Wish.

Ply as a Utility PsynergyEdit

Ply can be used outside of battle, usually to heal injured party members. However, Ply has another purpose: it can (and must) be used to activate certain events in Mercury Lighthouse:

• Ply is used open the front door of Mercury Lighthouse (Mia does this automatically before joining the party).
• It is also used on a statue near the entrance (although inaccessible except from above) to activate special panels. These panels allow Isaac's party to jump across the water for a limited time.
• Finally, it is used on a waterfall near the end of the dungeon to allow Isaac's team access to the Aerie.

When Ply is used in this manner, a fairy appears and sprinkles some "fairy dust" in the area, after which one of the mentioned effects will activate. This effect of Ply can only be used in the above locations or by setting it to a shortcut.

Ply as a Monster's PsynergyEdit

Another form of Ply is seen used by the Refresh Ball in the Star Magician battle. The ability is called Earnest Ply (the original Japanese name for Pure Ply) and appears to have a limited effect similar to Pure Ply. However, it may only target the Star Magician. When hacked onto a character, the spell only allows to be cast on one's self. Other than the limited target selection, though, it is identical in every way - from amount healed, to PP cost.
